    Cocktail Cabinets

    So many gorgeous cabinets! I've been after one for ages.... We won this art deco drinks cabinet at an auction at the weekend - it may need a little TLC when it arrives - so far I only have this photo from the auctioneer:

    What do you do for Living?

    For the last few years I worked for a law firm and listed funds on the Irish Stock Exchange but gave up work when I had our little girl - I'm busier now than I ever have been - but loving it!

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Excellent movie - Susan Hayward was superb in it. Human Desire - I thought this was only so-so.

    Damaged dress, what should I do?

    I bought a stunning 1950's dress (someone had worn it on their wedding day) and it was in mint condition when I received it - so I wore it on my Hen Night and I had only got in the taxi when under the arm went, during dinner seams popped left and right - luckily I had a sewing kit with me (I...

I'm all about getting things altered to fit properly (wish I could do it myself as it is so expensive but I do intend to take up dressmaking in the coming months!) - good luck with your dressmaking - I think it's brilliant to see so many ladies here crafting beautiful things - gives...

    Thank you! Yes, I know what you mean - I was thinking the same thing about the dress - I think I'm a bit taller than her (fingers crossed!) - hopefully! I'll be wearing heels too.... My second pair of Life Strides:

    The Golden Era's *ugliest* clothes

    Some of the designs might be all kinds of horrible but at least they were creative - I love some of the ideas (even if I wouldn't wear it myself) like the purse pocket - purely on an imaginative basis - you wouldn't find those kinds of ideas knocking around now.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    If you haven't read his autobiography I would really recommend it - it was one of the few books that I was sorry to finish and genuinly felt sad that that was the end of it! He writes with such humour, warmth and insight - the book is set out in chapters dealing with each great actor/director...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Cameraman - The Life & Work of Jack Cardiff - brilliant documentary - Cardiff's autobiography Magic Hour is one of my favourite books of all time so it was great to see him being interviewed, to see some of his on-set home movies, hear some anecdotes plus get a look at his incredible body of work.
